Heya guys I stumbled apon a bunch of stuff at Hovercontrol,..in particular are some excellent BK-117's in numerous guises and models as well as EC-135's and EC-145's also by H&S (Pics of the EC145 to come at another time). I have done a google search and unfortunately cannot find any NZ paints for the BK-117 as yet..might give it ago if no one has but looks might be a bit of a tricky one..we'll see. I had to reduce all of the VC textures in the BK-117 by 50% as by default it was almost unflyable with miserable framerates as well as some new prop textures,..that done she is magic and ported very well to FSX !. Solid models which look to my eye pretty darn accurate and a pleasure to watch and just look at and the VC is excellent as well with cool systems modelled in too...great stuff H&S ( ICARO Group ) . Anyway here are a couple shots of what I've found...enjoy.

It's a beaut - I fly it in FS9 of course, and a NZ paint would be a real bonus!

I tried this pack out a while ago but couldn't get it to work properly. Panel missing but gauges showing, some paint jobs all black, I guess it didn't like DX100

Looks nice!
I don't really care for the BK though as an aero-medical platform as there are faster, roomier, and more well equipped aircraft out there, but the this FS rendition looks good.
